CVE-2005-1686
Format string vulnerability in gedit 2.10.2 may allow attackers to
cause a denial of service (application crash) via a bin file with
format string specifiers in the filename.  NOTE: while this issue is
triggered on the command line by the gedit user, it has been reported
that web browsers and email clients could be configured to provide a
file name as an argument to gedit, so there is a valid attack that
crosses security boundaries.";
